The Washington Redskins are back on the road on Sunday so that means that truly live blogging returns to RealRedskins.com. Kickoff is at 4:15 so we’ll get started with the Cover It Live software at about 3:30 or so. That will enable you to submit comments and give your thoughts as the game unfolds. If…

In 2006, along with many, I would have bet the mortgage that Terrell Owens would not be a problem for the Washington Redskins to worry about as they prepared to face the Dallas Cowboys in 2008. The only question would have been if the Cowboys still were dealing with the radioactive remnants of the inevitable…

Jason Taylor will miss the Redskins’ game against Dallas, Jim Zorn said today. He was kicked in the calf in the game against Arizona and some swelling and pain came overnight. He went to the hospital and underwent a relatively minor procedure to drain the area. There will be no long-term problems, but he won’t…

The Redskins clearly were better than the Cardinals on Sunday. Not a lot better. Arizona wasn’t outclassed, or even outmanned. But the Redskins played better football, smarter football, more opportunistic football. Not by a lot, but by enough. The numbers reflect this. Jason Campbell wasn’t a lot better than Kurt Warner but he did complete…

The biggest complaint coming out of the Valley of the Sun today is that the Cardinals were “robbed” of a touchdown when the referee called a delay of game penalty on a fourth and one play on Arizona’s first offensive possession. Ken Whisenhunt decided to go for it at the Washington 41 and Arizona came…

14:55—Not a great punt by Brooks, but good for 35 and no return. 13:34—Another offside on Taylor buys Arizona a down. Instead of third and eight after a five-yard pass it’s second and eight. 12:59—Who says that Rogers has no hands. A great pick after a nice tip by Torrence. Not a bad runback either,…

To bring out a Capt. Obvious cliché here, it’s anyone’s ballgame. Campbell seems to have cooled off since completing his first eight passes. He’s a streaky passer and if he can get it going, the Skins will be fine. If his hot streak isn’t due until next week or before the Cards lay a couple…

15:00—We’ll see here how Zorn reacts to a takeaway in opponent’s territory. I like going for the TD right off the bat. 14:49—Devin Thomas now has two passes thrown to him and two PI calls. No offsetting call here and it’s first and 20. Zorn didn’t go for it all but It was a deep…

14:56—We have a new press box announcer and it seems that the PR staff is making a great effort to get the information that is spoken over the PA correct. That has been a challenge in the seven-plus seasons I’ve been sitting here and probably beyond that. 13:24—A great WCO-style pass from Campbell to Portis.…

It seems to be quite a bit warmer today than the 80-ish that was forecast. Favors tde Skins in the white unis. Dialup looks good, check back at halftime. —Sent via Empower HTML Mail Viewer For BlackBerryhttp://www.mobylo.com/emv/ Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile

I’m going back to the past in order to try to pull off a live blog of the Redskins-Cardinals game. You guessed it, a dialup connection. I’m not promising anything, but I’m pretty sure I should be able to post live updates from the press box at FedEx. After all, dialup was an existing technology…

Normally this space is given to recount great Redskins victories of the past. This one is about a gut-wrenching defeat. If you want to draw a scowl from any Redskins fan of my generation, there are two names that will do the trick. One is Clint Longley. The other is Mel Gray. To say that…

To me, the Washington Redskins-Arizona Cardinals game boils down to this: Can the Redskins slow down the Arizona triple threat of Kurt Warner, Larry Fitzgerald, and Anquan Boldin enough to be able to outscore the Cards? Warner is off to a hot start, bringing back the echoes of 1999. If a team had just one…
